A sweet young thing approached noted historian Arnold J. Toynbee at a party and sought his wisdom. The professor - a bit in his cups - pronounced that all of history can be understood in terms of four basic principles:
1. The mills of the gods grind slowly but they grind exceedingly fine.
2. Whom the gods would destroy they first drive mad with power.
3. The bee also fertilizes the flower which it robs.
4. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.
